Network Application Platforms

Using suitable RJ-45 cable, you can connect FW-8895 System to a computer, or to any other piece of equipment that has

an Ethernet connection; for example, a hub or a switch. Moreover, 2 or 4 pair (LAN1-LAN2, LAN3-LAN4, LAN5-LAN6, LAN7-

LAN8) on the Ethernet module can be configured as LAN Bypass when failure events occur (depending on the type of LAN

modules). This feature can be implemented with a watch dog timer to enable it automatically. Refer to your User’s Manual

CD for a sample implementation of this feature.

Note:

The availability of LAN Bypass varies depending on the model of Ethernet LAN module. For more information, visit
